TAG

What TAG does

TAG Investimentos is an independent Brazilian wealth management firm founded in 2004 by Thiago de Castro and headquartered in the Itaim Bibi district of São Paulo. The firm provides portfolio management, exclusive fund vehicles, structured credit products (FIDC, CRA, CRI, debentures), and wealth/succession planning services to high net worth and ultra high net worth families and institutional investors across São Paulo, Belo Horizonte, and the Triângulo Mineiro region. TAG's core differentiator is its independence from large financial institutions, which underpins an unbiased advisory model in a market dominated by bank-affiliated wealth managers.

The firm operates four core product lines: Gestão de Patrimônio (wealth management for families), Investment Solutions (institutional mandates for pension funds and endowments), Produtos Estruturados (structured credit and securitization, including FIDC-NP Precato funds focused on judicial receivables), and TAG Edge (an innovation hub launched in 2023 that structures credit products for startups). Revenue is generated primarily through recurring asset management fees on AUM across multimercado, fixed income, and alternative/structured vehicles. Distribution is direct and relationship-driven through dedicated Bankers covering São Paulo, Belo Horizonte, and Triângulo Mineiro, plus a newly established institutional distribution team led by a Head of Institutional Distribution appointed in 2024.

TAG employs 11–50 professionals and operates without proprietary technology platforms, relying on standard industry tooling for portfolio management, risk monitoring, and reporting. The firm is regulated by the CVM and adheres to ANBIMA and ABVCAP codes. With 20+ years of independent operation, cumulative structured product issuance above R$1 billion since 2017, and recent senior hires including a new CIO (2023) and Head of Institutional Distribution (2024), TAG is in an active growth phase expanding its institutional and alternative product capabilities.
